The NIKE AIR MAX 97 OFF NOIR revitalises Christian Tresser’s striking design with something simple. Long believed to have been inspired by Japan’s high-speed Bullet trains, it eventually transpired that the real spark of inspiration came from studying mountain bikes. With its multiple contours and curves that give the shoe a true essence of speed, the 97 is best known for its original ‘Silver Bullet’ incarnation but this Off Noir drop treads a more tonal approach, resulting in something that slots in nicely to any rotation.
The NIKE AIR MAX 97 OFF NOIR is AVAILABLE NOW: follow the images below to pick up a pair at NIKE today.
